Built to Eddie Van Halen's specifications, the EVH Wolfgang Standard is a well-designed, ferocious machine. This guitar's basswood body generates insane tonal resonance and sustain, which will lend a fluid, glass-like quality to your legato phrases. This Wolfgang Standard's dual custom-designed humbuckers add just enough edge to your sound to make your amp bark and bite. You'll be delighted by the hand-rubbed oil finish on this guitar's fast-playing neck as your hand slides effortlessly down its smooth maple fingerboard. Complete with an EVH-branded Floyd Rose tremolo, this Wolfgang Standard is loaded with everything a serious guitarist could want.





Built for serious playing





From its basswood body to its maple neck and fingerboard, this EVH Wolfgang Standard screams quality. This amazing guitar is made for serious playing, with a compound-radius fingerboard, an EVH Floyd Rose bridge and locking nut, and direct-mounted EVH humbuckers. You also get two black plastic knobs for total control over your tone and volume and super-stable EVH tuners. All the components come together to make a high-performance electric guitar.





Ultra-stable 2-piece bolt-on neck





The neck is one of the most important aspects of any instrument, which is why this EVH Wolfgang Standard's 2-piece bolt-on neck offers such amazing stability. You'll also love the playability and feel of the compound-radius fretboard on this Wolfgang Standard. The fretboard radius goes from 12" at the nut to a comfortable and flat 16" radius on the upper frets.





Floyd Rose tremolo allows for twisting, bending, and huge dive-bombs





First gaining popularity in the 1980s, the Floyd Rose tremolo's locking design keeps your guitar in tune ? even if you like to perform extreme pitch pyrotechnics. You can force the whammy bar all the way down to the guitar's body for psychotic dive-bombing. No matter how hard you yank it, you'll maintain your tuning stability, thanks to the Floyd Rose tremolo's locking design.
